Yesterday I was reading an article about this case that stated Newegg didn't even bother to call their witnesses to dispute the amount of damages that would've been caused by their patent violation. It gave the…
I grew up and live in the lower right 1/3 of the US and his depiction is not that far off. Based on totally made up statistics that I'm pulling from my nether regions right now I'd guess at least one jury member had the…
I was wondering this myself.
I'd be interested in hearing of any warrant canaries that disappeared.
It's sad that I thought it was serious/plausible right up until the robot doubles.
Releasing information can be civil disobedience and imho should be shown leniency when it is. I don't suggest that I'm the one that should determine whether something should qualify as civil disobedience or not, but…
For the millionth time. If you're going to tell me you don't trust me to work from home you'd better not be pushing to outsource to India. I mean how can you trust someone on the other side of the planet but you can't…
No, people could always have said things about me and I'd have no way of stopping them.
Is this not the case with all three big players in the smartphone market? I don't have an iphone but my ipod sure seems useless without an account with Apple. It's the same account I use for itunes, apps on my macbook…
"The majority of people prefer it this way" seems like the perfect justification for a coding standard. Consistency is way more important to me than perfectly matching up with some specific ideal.
I had the opposite experience. Working long hours never got me a raise or promotion. Successful projects got me raises and promotions, but I generally don't need to work even 40 hours to make that happen. Once I lifted…
I feel like what companies mean when they say that children should learn to program is that they should learn problem solving and critical thinking skills. In my experience these things are saved for only the children…
Something, something, xkcd, $5 wrench.
It's the old statistics vs story narrative. People don't relate to stories of the masses. They can relate and react to the story of an individual though. So governments and organizations need to be focused on the…
I'm also a white male and reading the article I kept thinking "The requirement for speaking and dressing well doesn't have anything to do with your skin color." The old adage about dressing for the job you want is true…
Incidentally this is PRECISELY why our country was founded on the idea of a weak federal government and strong state governments.. it's just too damned big with too many different competing cultures and ideologies to…
I'm an American so I'm probably biased.. but what I've found is that in most school districts you can get as good of an education as you want. I grew up in South Carolina and went to high/secondary school in Florida..…
lol, a one year severance package. That sounds like fantasy land to me.
I would assume any country with a big enough economy/budget is monitoring international internet communication in its totality. Or at least attempting it. Of course there's really only a hand full of nations that could…
Meh, in exchange for DRM I get Netflix and Hulu content streamed to my house for dirt cheap pricing. Now I might DISAGREE that DRM was necessary or even useful, but the content providers simply would not have made that…
I actively avoid Paypal for anything other than Ebay, and that's only because Ebay won't let anyone else but their own payment system on the site. I'm usually quite happy to use Google's payment system and I'll be just…
There's a few other players trying to do similar things. The big box stores are getting better at their online fulfillment. Sears is famously going that route putting a bunch of brands together. No one has come up with…
I had a manager that would repeatedly use this type of remark. We had this particular application that on one could touch without breaking something. It was always a mess. He would often remark "I wrote the whole thing…
What purpose would it serve the government to describe its limits?
